  • Built the service’s strategy, staffing, intake and interagency coordination.
  • Introduced AI-assisted drafting with professional human review and terminology guidance.
  • Established performance measures and workflows for accountable delivery.
  • Expanded multilingual delivery for MN.gov and other public information.

How engagements work

  1. Define the work. Agree on the operational problem, scope, deliverables, owners, and acceptance criteria. Identify available baseline information and choose measures that fit the assignment.
  1. Put the plan into practice. Prepare the information, procedures, reporting, and staff guidance needed for the work. Support implementation with the people responsible for delivery, decisions, and review.
  1. Evaluate and hand over. Compare results with the agreed baseline where data allows. Document limitations, outstanding issues, responsible owners, and the steps needed to maintain the work.

Depending on the assignment, measures may include processing time, staff effort and delivery cost, errors and rework, or overdue actions and documented approvals.
